At a Glance: 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 Restomod
Constructed by Dillon’s Rod and Customs in Barnum, Iowa, this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 restomod began as an original Mach 1 Mustang with a verified VIN and build codes. New interior parts, body panels, and glass were fitted along with a 5.0 Coyote engine and 6-speed manual transmission as part of a bespoke build which cost over $148,000 to complete in 2016. About 300 miles have been added by the current owner, bringing the post-restoration mileage to 985. This 1969 Mach 1 restomod is now being offered on consignment with a clean Tennessee title, clean Carfax, and extensive build photos and documentation.
Enthusiasts familiar with the 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 will note the altered body lines of this restomod Mach 1, especially at the hood, tail, and rear quarter panels. Wilwood disc brakes are visible through the 20” American Racing wheels. New glass was added along with custom grill trim, hood pins, bumpers, and tail lights. Though extensive custom bodywork was performed during the rotisserie restoration, this Mach 1 retains much of its original chassis underneath. It is said to be in flawless cosmetic and mechanical condition throughout. Inside, this 1969 Ford Mustang Mach 1 restomod has been updated with power windows, power leather seats from a 2013 Mustang, and a heater, air conditioning, and power steering system from Vintage Air. Dakota Digital VHX gauges were added and a passenger display was inlaid above the glove compartment. A bespoke wiring harness runs the length of the car. The digital odometer shows that 985 miles have been added since the restoration was completed in 2016.
Under the modernized skin, this Mach 1 packs an equally modern driveline – a 2013 Ford 5.0 Coyote engine backed by a 6-speed manual transmission and a 9” 3.70 posi rear end. The updated fuel system consists of a new injection pump, sending unit, lines, and a one-off stainless steel fuel tank. The minimalist engine bay contains a Wilwood master cylinder, upgraded cooling system, and custom fabricated hood hinges. Comprehensive build photos are available upon request and a general overview of parts and upgrades can be found below.

What have we got here? Is it KITT, then? Well, not quite. It’s the exact model of Shelby Mustang used for the 2008 reboot of Knight Rider – the GT500KR. Contrary to belief, KR actually means King of the Road. It’s a term that pays homage to the original 1968 GT500KR, a fearsome, Cobra Jet toting machine. Today’s 2008 Ford Mustang Shelby GT500KR features a supercharged Modular V8 under the hood to really get your pulse racing. In case that isn’t enough, this 1,400-mile machine from Iowa also has the Shaker 1000 audio system, Shelby GT500KR forged wheels and even a carbon fiber rear spoiler and front splitter. You’d better not waste any time, then. Only 1,712 units were made, by the way.
This 1970 Ford Mustang Mach 1 stands at the very top of the Mustang performance hierarchy, documented as 1 of 1 produced as equipped according to the Deluxe Marti Report. Powered by its original 428ci Super Cobra Jet V8 and factory-equipped with the coveted Drag Pack option, this Mach 1 represents one of the most desirable configurations available in 1970. The Drag Pack specification, paired with the 4.30 rear axle and Detroit Locker, signals serious factory performance intent. Recently refinished in factory-correct Medium Gold Metallic and retaining a mostly original Medium Ginger interior with red oxide floors, this example blends authenticity, documentation, and muscle car pedigree. Accompanied by its build sheet, copy of the window sticker, original sales contract, owner’s manual, shop manual, wiring diagram manual, and extra keys, this Mach 1 offers the kind of provenance collectors look for in a blue-chip Ford muscle car.
This 2017 Ford Mustang Shelby Super Snake represents one of the most aggressive factory-authorized Shelby builds of the modern S550 era. Finished in Shadow Black and equipped with a 6-speed manual transmission, this example combines the raw engagement of a traditional manual gearbox with Shelby’s 750+ horsepower supercharged performance package. Based on the Mustang GT Premium, the Super Snake conversion elevates the car into a limited-production, Shelby Registry–numbered performance machine with extensive mechanical, cooling, braking, and aerodynamic upgrades. With an original total MSRP approaching six figures, this car delivers supercar-level straight-line performance while retaining daily drivability and full Shelby documentation.

From the vintage first-generation F-Series of 1948 to today’s fourteenth generation, Ford’s famous family of pickup trucks is a success story for books, case studies and more. It’s redefined the bar for a pickup truck countless times, and even caught the attention of Carroll Shelby. Even though the great man is no more, there are Shelby F-150s around, like this current-generation 2023 Ford F-150 Shelby from Yucalpa, California. With just 12,500 miles on the clock and a V8 under the hood, this could be the ideal half-ton truck for someone with a family who needs the versatility of a pickup.

Power comes from a 5.0L Gen 3 Coyote V8 producing approximately 480 horsepower, paired with a 10R80 10-speed automatic transmission and a capable 4x4 drivetrain. With its blend of vintage design and contemporary mechanicals, this Bronco delivers significantly improved performance and drivability compared to the original while retaining the character that made these early SUVs so desirable.
